New member Username: D_singhPost Number: 6 Registered: Sep-05 | I live in north suburban Chicago and I recieve all local broadcasts in digital transmission, except for ABC. 2, 5, 9, 11, 20, 26, 32, 38, 50, and even 60 all come in digital. My question is, should I re-direct my antenna just a smidgen to recieve ABC in digital (or HD) and sacrifice the nonsense 38 and 60, or is just that ABC does not broadcast in digital? I really want to be able to Monday Night Football on the big screen in HD. |

From Chicago, You should be able to get all the major networks via a small settop antenna. If a minor adjustment is necessary to receiver ABC, then it's no biggie. |

New member Username: DstraightPost Number: 4 Registered: Sep-05 | I am also in North Suburb Chicago (Glencoe). With my cheap ($39) indoor antenna from radio shack on the second floor, I am able to get HD channel 7 easily. Actually, I had more trouble with channel 2 but am now getting it fine with a little tweaking. I have the antenna pointed south-east. Also, be sure to extend the VHS dipoles - they are crtical for channels 2-13. |
